Environmentally constrained modeling of mid-frequency transmission loss and reverberation measured during the Target and Reverberation Experiment 2013
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America(2022)
摘要
The goal of the Target and Reverberation Experiment (TREX13) was to make contemporaneous measurements of mid-frequency (1.5–4 kHz) transmission loss and reverberation with extensive environmental measurements so detailed model/data comparison can be achieved and important environmental factors can be identified for different applications. APL-UW collaborated with ARL-Penn State, led by John R. Preston, to deploy the Five Octave Research Array (FORA) on a “clothesline” about 2.1 m above the seafloor. This fixed-source/receiver configuration helped eliminate uncertainties from the motion of a towed array and allow reverberation measurement along a narrow, 7-km-long section of seafloor. The experiment site had a fairly complex spatial distribution of both sediment type and sediment scattering properties and keeping the FORA in a fixed position was instrumental in understanding and modeling the reverberation. While soft sediments make up only 27% of the sediments by area at the site, it is necessary to account for this spatial dependence so that both transmission loss and reverberation can be modeled using a consistent set of environmental inputs. These models and their implications for our understanding of the environmental factors which most impact mid-frequency reverberation will be discussed.
